Golf Club d’Omaha Beach

The Golf d’Omaha Beach was created in 1986 by Guy Dupont and designed by Yves Bureau, who designed many golf courses in France like Golf de Vire or Katameya Heights in Egypt. It is located on the coast near Bayeux and only a few kilometres away from the D-Day Landing Beaches and the American Cemetery at Colleville-sur-mer where Steven Spielberg filmed scenes of “Saving Private Ryan” among the 10,000 white crosses.

Golf d’Omaha Beach has 2 courses, each with 18 holes with different landscapes between land and sea.

You will be charmed by course « La Mer-Par 72 » overlooking the sea and Port en Bessin fishing village.

The surroundings on hole 6 green , is spectacular. Set up at the cliff’s edge by the architect Yves Bureau, it overlooks the village of Port en Bessin and it’s fishing boats and offers an interesting view on the Arromanches artificial harbour and the Longues sur Mer battery, both very present remains of the allied landings.
